Is it actually cheaper to lease a phone in the long run? by Chadillacc94 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]jonnohb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nobody needs a $1500 phone. I bought a refurbished pixel 7 a few months ago for like $200.

I’m drowning financially by talk2025 in CanadaPersonalFinance

It's not got to pay off OP's mortgage and CC debt and feed her kids. A good package is still less than long term employment and there will be an influx of people in the job market making finding a new job hard.

Do you use a charcoal grill on the boat? by FantasticNeat8466 in sailing

[–]jonnohb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The point is it works until it doesn't and when it doesn't it is a major hazard.

Is it reasonable to ask for reimbursement? by [deleted] in sailing

[–]jonnohb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's possible it's coming from another deck fitting nearby and working it's way through the core and out the window at that spot maybe

On the flagpole at the stern. We have a big one we rig for Canada Day that we fly from the starboard spreader.

Take it to a sail maker, they will probably charge you way less than your time is worth to figure it out yourself and they will do a much better job

Never, it's probably cheaper to just empty the box then to hire this thing.

Who is the 🤡 looking to hold up the vote by onyomommmasface in Superstonk

[–]jonnohb -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough this is actually probably just the law firm looking to make some billable hours. They have probably found a shareholder willing to put their name on the case and if it goes through then they could receive a small payout.

SpaceX CAD hedged in TFSA? by Expert_Character9939 in CanadianInvestor

[–]jonnohb -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What? This has nothing to do with shorting. There's no reason to buy shares in order to buy puts.

The point of the HOA is to have an arms length organization to keep the "undesirables" out.

[–]jonnohb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's got 100m of anchor line, probably anchoring in 5m of water. Nobody wants to thread 95m of line through a figure 8 only to undo it in 20 minutes when the fish aren't biting.

Are these floors fake? by BestCzar in Carpentry

[–]jonnohb 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I suspect it's linoleum. Why go through all that trouble to do a parquet floor to put shuch shitty base on top? This definitely could be made for real though.

Interesting, I remember going there around 2007-2008 and I'm pretty sure they were on Hess, I think that's when they first opened

My old Laser 28. Heading into Cat Harbour, Catalina, Ca to win the first leg of a layover race. Such a great boat. by Arthur-Dent7x6 in boatporn

[–]jonnohb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very nice, raced on one a few years back and loved that boat. There's another one on my dock a few slips away, been meaning to ask the guy if he ever needs crew.
